2 Responses to “FreeBSD custom port patches when using poudriere”

Since /distfiles/ is a cache directory therefore it can be cleared at any time and putting patches to place like /usr/ports/LocalPatches is not a good idea either (messes up portstree if using CVS’) I created a small patch for Poudriere (tested with 3.2-pre). It mounts config variable PATCH_DATA to the jail’s /patches, so one can use /patches/webserver/nagios.patch in make.conf.
